Too Good to be True?

I purchased my SPF #2099 used six months ago and it only had 550 miles. I think in these cases the original owners didn't know what they were really getting into. They may have liked the idea of owning a Cobra until they realized they are loud, hot, a little difficult to drive at first, no radio, no air, no windows. Or maybe in this economy something changed with their income flow. What ever the reason some are more eager to sell. I looked at cars similar to this one and mine that were asking $65,000 (too high in my opinion) but if they didn't need to sell they could hang onto it until the right buyer came along. This one seems priced about right for a pretty new build with low miles. Remember that it probably cost close to $70K or more to build this car new. I think it will sell for less but as far as asking price it is fair. I was worried that 550 miles was actually too low for the kinks to be worked out also but luckily I haven't had any mechanical issues and I have put 1300 miles on the car since I bought it. I have adjusted the timing a little due to dieseling on the damn 91 octane they sell around here and had to replace the turn signal stalk that never worked right since day one. I also don't like the shifter position it is too close and doesn't look right either but that can be part of the negotiation and can be changed. Overall looks like a good clean car. Some price their car high and never sell or come down alot. Others start closer to their real price and give very little wiggle room. I would still offer less and see how eager they are to sell. JMO
